DAVID WACHMAN again loosened Ballydoyle's grip on this top juvenile contest after Sudirman landed back-to-back victories for the Goolds Cross trainer.

The 5-1 winner, following in the footsteps of Probably 12 months ago, caused an upset when fighting back to get the better of Big Time as the Aidan O'Brien-trained 8-15 favourite Coach House could only manage third.

O'Brien, a seven-time winner of the Railway Stakes since 2002, has now gone four years without success following the disappointing performance of the Norfolk Stakes runner-up, who flew the Ballydoyle flag in the absence of the withdrawn Stubbs.

Wachman said of the half-length winner: "He's a bit of a slow learner, but he's improving with each run and was going away at the line. We might step up to seven furlongs."
